'Saand ki Aankh' is film about equality at its core: Bhumi Pednekar
Bhumi Pednekar believes her upcoming film "Saand Ki Aankh" highlights the inequality towards women that exists even today in society. The film metaphorically points out the inequalities that women have faced across generations through the life story of two of the world's oldest sharpshooters of India, Chandro and Prakashi Tomar played by Bhumi and Taapsee Pannu respectively.

"These women started a revolution. And that's exactly what the Tomar sisters did. Unknowingly they were a part of a system that didn't give them any opportunities cause the society just didn't know better, but they didn't want the same for their daughters and grand daughters," Bhumi said in a statement
The film, directed by Tushar Hiranandani is produced by Anurag Kashyap, Reliance Entertainment and Nidhi Parmar. It is slated to be released on October 25.
